Thanks for posting this. I had no idea in needed a spanner on the headset tool as no instructions in the box! Life saver!

You can do top n bottom cups together.
I love building bikes....got a ton of experience in that field 😉
Just shout if you need owt. 👍

Cheers mate!

Great to see someone building one up! What's the lower bearing angle of the Nukeproof headset? The integrated crwon race on the fork is 36 degrees which is less common than 45 degrees on most lowers.

What do you need with a hair dryer? :P

I bought this tool. Just tried to press new headset in ti frame. Totally impossible. Then tool jammed and couldn't get that out 😫.
Had to take it to bike shop. He had to welly tool out with hammer. I asked him to put cups in for me, saw the top cup go in completely wonky despite him using a proper park tool headset press. Ffs 🤦‍♂️😫

[@Bike_Guy]

Sounds like a right nightmare. Did you get sorted in the end?

[@Neil.C57510]

@@Bike_Guy Yeah, sorted now. I just hope the shop hasn't damaged the frame with them forcing it in completely wonky. One side was completely in, the other completely out 🙄

How am I supposed to get a hold of this frame/fork in the USA?

[@Bike_Guy]

I ordered mine from a website called Wiggle, they are also linked to Chain Reaction Cycles. I think both ship to the USA. The Ragley website has a distributor in New Jersey. Thanks for watching 🙂
